Conor McGregor has taken the UFC by storm over the last year, dominating everyone put in front of him while calling out the elite talent of the featherweight division, stating that he will beat all of them one by one.
McGregor’s first true test in the UFC comes this weekend against Dustin “The Diamond” Poirier on the pay-per-view portion of UFC Fight Pass.
Poirier was among many of the top 10 featherweight displeased with seeing McGregor catapult up the rankings, and he plans on halting the Irishman’s hype train this Saturday night.
When Poirier caught word that McGregor will be in Brazil for the featherweight title fight between Jose Aldo and Chad Mendes at UFC 179, he warned Dana White not to “not go all in” on McGregor just yet.
@lorenzofertitta @danawhite Don’t go all in on this clown. I’m coming to destroy. The truth will be told Saturday!
